Very disappointed. It’s been 10 years since I’ve been here and the quality has really gone down. I hate writing bad reviews but usually service makes up for it. They never came back and offered a refill for my water, or cleared our plates. No bread and the napkins smelled so dirty and greasy. I couldn’t even wipe my mouth with it anymore. We had the seafood pasta and it was salty and seafood was over cooked, pasta itself was cooked pretty good. The branzino was actually good with the veggies, Caesar salad came and at first didn’t have anchovies (even though it said it on the menu), we had to ask for it. I remember coming here 10 years ago with my tech buddies and it was way better. Definitely not coming back

Good food. The servers are attentive. Most of the crowd seemed to come to celebrate or for a special occasion.

3rd time here. Everything was amazing. They even had the fireplace going to keep us warm. I love that they brought the kids food first. Highly recommend.

Very nice spot on the water with great service and very good food. It is opposite the Jack London area.

We come here every year for my cousin's bday so he can order plain fettuccine Alfredo lol. But honestly pasta pelican is actually quite good and has a wide selection of tasty pastas for a reasonable price. The service is also great and let you have as much house baked bread as you want and it's not difficult to get a reservation, even with a large party as the restaurant is pretty large inside. The interior design of the restaurant could and a little face lift--it's giving old ship. And maybe that's on purpose for the theme but regardless I don't go there for the ambiance but go there to enjoy delicious food.

We came for dinner and will be back soon. We got the fried calamari, clam chowder and caesar salad to start. We then had Fettuccine Con Sugo Caldo and Tortellini All' Ortolana. The tortellini was to die for. We finished with the tiramisu. Staff was friendly and service was so fast. View was fantastic. We were a party of 3 but this could be a great spot for larger group.

Nasty dirty unprofessional restaurant and staff. This place would rate at a (-) if you could score it less than zero. The ownership here must not give a heck about the food safety and it's customers. I will definitely talk to my friends that work in the food industry to send an inspector for a surprise inspection. This place relays that you will not read the reviews. DO NOT GO HERE!
Haven't been in a long time. Still great food and atmosphere!

Really enjoyed my time here at this restaurant! Recently came here for a friend's birthday and was intrigued by the views of the bay. When we walked in, we were greeted by the friendly staff and had the option of sitting by the window. The staff were super attentive. We ordered the calamari for an appetizer and one of their delicious wines on the menu. Everything we had was so good and seasoned so well. I also enjoyed the music they had on which was modern classic music. Myself and a friend made a game in trying to guess the melody based off the tune! By the end of our visit, they remembered that we mentioned it was my friend's birthday and bought her a cake and a candle. She really appreciated it since it was her first cake of her day and we thought the gesture from the restaurant was really sweet. We will definitely be back!

Have gone to this place twice and enjoyed both visits, family friendly as well. Will definitely go again.
This restaurants menu says their beers are on draft for $8.50 but the waiter brought out a bottle. I pointed this out and he brought back a poured beer I assume with something else in it. Also the bill was overcharged by $30 with 2 items that weren't ordered. Accidents happen but this restaurant is next to senoir housing and lots of elderly go there. Perhaps it is the elderly's job to make sure the bill is right, but lots of mistakes in the restaurant's favor is very lucrative.
